Hello,

Has anyone dealt with high CPU utilization problems on an AIX SP node?
Were you able to do anything to reduce the CPU utilization?
This happens during incremental backups.  Other less powerful (fewer
procesors) machines with less memory do not experience this issue.
Are there any commands that can be run from the AIX OS that would help
isolate this?  Can you specify that a given process can only have so much
cpu time?

Hints on how to resolve this kind of situation?
